Our On-Line Editor is mummy-chic to 8 month old Mini, and we look to her for our fashion must-haves each season.
“I look for high-quality interesting pieces, but these days I do tend to choose function first – but I ADORE everything gorgeous and glamourous”‘.
“I fell love with the Reiss Gerrard Mini Structured Cross-Body bag with a stunning chain detail on the shoulder strap. The mini bag comes in black and will carry all essentials for out and about with baby or dashing between meetings. What you can’t see, but which I ooohed and aaaahed over is the open-out purse located at the back of the bag leaving the inside free to hold my iPhone, business cards, Oyster card, and a perfume miniature.
“This purse detail is perfect when needing to pay for my goodies in a hurry – no more routing around through old receipts, lipstick and hair pins. This is definitely something for the Sporty-Luxe fashion personality.
For the evening, Michaela chose the gold clam shell hard case clutch. “I fell in love with the design on the Reiss website, then I saw it in the flesh (so to speak) and it is just as glamourous, if not more stunning than I thought. It’s large enough to hold all my evening essentials for a night out with the girls or a date with husband sans baby M”.
The cute clasp is a faux pearl befitting of the overall design, and this clutch opens out for easy access. The chain is a tight linked chain, best worn over the shoulder. This clutch would look fantastic with this season’s pastel and lace trend.
The lining of both the cross body and the clutch is classic and tasteful.
